Topic: A Broader View / the economy and corrections

It definitly not easy right now… I am down in Marion County at Oregon Youth Authority and have a lot of clients come from Washington county. And yes the facility in Coos Bay is still open, but who know’s how long. With these tax measures we might be safe through the next biennium.

Topic: A Broader View / the economy and corrections

I work in juvenile corrections in Oregon and we were hit pretty bad. Our new (4 years old) 56 bed facility was cut down to 32 beds and 4 of us were laidoff. I moved to youth correctional facility and we are facing layoffs again. Fortunatly voters passed a two tax measures yesterday that will help keep funding for school and public safety jobs. We do have Furlough days that are just crazy! 92 hours total. I’m a 50% emplyee and each time I put in a furlough day I only get credit for 4 hours. It makes no sense, since I work 40 hours weeks and take an entire day off, I still only get 4 hours credit! Were fighting it but it seems like a losing battle. So instead we pay someone OT to work our furlough days! We don’t save money… Seems like we spend more of it!
